If we assume the clones are exact clones of you right now, then wouldn't they be thinking the same thing as you? You have control over yourself, so why wouldn't you have control over yourself? Unless you can never agree with yourself, and are always being bossed around by yourself - but wait - doesn't that mean you have control over yourself?

I think my clones would be too independent to take orders from me but also too lazy to leave so we'd all probably just watch anime and play vids. all day
dvuongz:
we'd be arguing all day.....everyday... for eternity....i'm kinda stubborn/philosophical

Since they can't occupy the same space at the same time they begin to diverge from exactness as soon as they are created, their experiences begin to diverge from mine, at some point if they have independent thought they really do become unique individuals due to the accumulation of different experience from mine. If they posess independent thought then I wouldn't try to control them since that would be no different than slavery, if however they are automatons that I control I'd have them do the menial work I don't care to do and let me do the interesting stuff.
